Props A Real Combat Knife

[Vrogy]

A++++
Nicely done... now how 'bout a Stainless Steel version?

This is hardened tool steel. It is superior to stainless.

...in about everything but luster, but also doesn't tool steel rust?.

Stainless can be cast the same way you did your Aluminum, although ceramic shell would yield a better casting. It's a b**ch to work with, but the results are worth it. I just making a suggestion if you do more of these that is..

Your castings look wonderful I don't mean to question... I guess it's just personal preference.

Yeah, it is. We could probably cast it in stainless, but right now the CG is about 1/2" above the hilt, which is absolutely perfect IMO. As I said, this'll be my utility knife, so it needs to be functional, too.

Oh, here's a video of the knife:

The theory is that I reach over and pull it out, and the combat stops, so hopefully no.

Oh, a cast aluminum sheath is planned.

 

[Vrogy]

Anyone interested in something with these specs?
3/16"-1/4" 304 stainless blade
cast aluminum and rubber handle, more rounded and thinner
1.5-2 pounds
16-18" long
scaled for normal humans
leather-lined sheaths
a pair, instead of just one.

Here's basic specs on what I've made:
1/4" thick hardened L6 tool steel blade
cast aluminum handle
3 pounds
21.5" long
scaled for master chief

I would buy a pair of these bad boys for whatever price you want.

Actually that knife is the reason I joined right now, so I could say I was interested. Don't get me wrong, I've been lurking for a while, but this knife made me join.
